The video was very informative as it went into great depth to help show the history behind the fluctuation of nickel levels in the environment. The video was well put together, demonstrating a good flow from general concepts to a more specific topic.

Visual and oral presentation were slightly off at certain parts. The loop for the background song was buffering at various moments. During the slide with Siberia and Russia, the audio was cut off at the very end. Oral presentation started to speed up by the third slide, indicating too much information that is roughly compacted into 5 minutes. On the other hand, the background music added a hint of appeal and attraction to the video’s content. Pictures and drawings were extremely diverse and audio quality was perfect! The video fulfilled its requirement in the content area, providing much content of the end-Permian extinction that was easy to follow through and understand.

The video is very well put together and the general style helps keep my interest (yay pretty drawings). The information is also concise and coherent. If I get very picky, there is room for improvement. Most notable for me would be the change in rate of information delivery throughout the video. The beginning of the video is very easy to digest. However, towards the end it gets harder and harder to follow.

I liked your use of different colored markers and the timeline at the beginning of the video. The speaking could have been slowed down a little bit, but the video did provide sufficient information about the topic along with detailed drawings.

Anoxic means lack of oxygen, not energy. I was going to say we should introduce nickel and methanosarcina onto Mars so that the ice would melt and turn the planet into a planetary rest stop, but then you basically said that would just turn it into Venus 2.0 instead. Nice video though.

Although the narrator at times was hard to understand or was too fast, the video as a whole though was very good. The pictures/drawings that go on in during the narration are creative and very well done. It makes the video more entertaining and engaging. Also never realized the importance of nickel which was very interesting. Great thorough job!

Good visual on this video, however, there is some problem with the audio.. In some part of the video, I could not hear the explanation clearly. Fortunately, the clear visual and drawings really help me to understand the video better.

A little bit too much information all at once but that may have been due to rapid audio– it was hard to keep up with at certain points. However, lots of key points and nicely builds up to the importance of nickel in the end-permian extinction which was enlightening and interesting!
